Mini Hanger Pass? Philip was startled. He did not expect that Hanger Pass was divided into big and small. “Teacher, what exactly is this Hanger Pass?” Philip asked. Reed sighed as he recalled the legend and said, “This is just hearsay. Back then, the stargate was opened once, and the creatures from the other shore invaded this world on a large scale. Hanger Pass was the last line of defense for the human race to resist the creatures on the other shore! Without Hanger Pass, the civilization of this world would have been destroyed long ago.” Hearing this, Philip looked very surprised. The creatures on the other shore had invaded this world through the stargate and carried out a massacre! He suddenly thought of the group of creatures contained under the sacred city of Mount Olympus in the West! Were those the ones? “Was it the sage who stopped those creatures on the other side?” Philip asked. Reed replied, “It wasn’t him alone. There were sages in every era who would giv
Reed frowned and said with a nod, “Well, Cody Crane was once a famous character with fame no less than the five marquises. He once had the reputation that the world would tremble under his feet.” The world would tremble under his feet? Philip frowned. Reed shook his head and said, “Forget it, it’s best if you don’t get involved with this person. However, since your grandfather said so, you can look for him if you really get into any trouble. Maybe you can get some unexpected results.” “Okay.” Philip nodded, glanced at the letter in his hand, and said, “I’ll leave Fernvale to you, then.” Reed smiled and said, “I just received an order from the Imperial Preceptor. He’s ready to make a move against Fernvale, so I’m not helping you but simply carrying out his orders.” “The Imperial Preceptor wants to make a move against Fernvale?” Philip asked. Reed said, “Yes, he has lost patience with the situation here in Fernvale. Time is running out for those troublemakers.” Hearing
Philip immediately perked up. He took the information from Fennel and glanced through it carefully. Heavenly Court?! This organization was called the Heavenly Court? What a domineering name! This was a name that only appeared in ancient mythology! In modern society, those who dared to use such a name as the name of an organization were either very influential or powerful! This term was very meaningful! “Is this their name?” Philip asked with a frown, still in disbelief. The logo of this organization was the pearly gates of heaven, which looked huge, profound, and grand. Fennel shrugged and said, “Yes, Steven sent this. To be honest, I was shocked when I found out as well. Those who can use this name are definitely not ordinary people!” Philip was grave as he carefully looked at some of the information about this so-called Heavenly Court. The information sent by Steven was not much, most of which was superficial intelligence and clues. There was also a little int
Based on the information, his mother suddenly disappeared from the Heavenly Court more than 10 years ago. Since then, the Heavenly Court had no leader for a while and was temporarily managed by the Great Heavenly King of the neutral faction. All three factions had a Great Heavenly King. The strength of the Great Heavenly King was not mentioned, but Philip guessed that they should be a half-step to the other shore. That was because during the disciple competition between the North and the South, the person who fought against Grandmaster Turner was the Great Heavenly King of the conservative faction! At this point, Philip could not help but gasp. He looked up at Fennel and asked, “How credible do you think this information is?” Fennel thought about it and said, “I believe in the intelligence of the Smith family. At least 80% of this information is true. This Heavenly Court will become our formidable enemy in the future. We have too little information about it, and it has been
The people of the Heavenly Court would be going to Mystic City too? Philip asked in surprise, “Why would they go there? Did something happen in Mystic City?” Fennel said gravely, “I don’t know the specifics, but according to the information, something extraordinary seems to have appeared in Mystic City, which has attracted the attention of all parties. This time, I’m afraid we might run into many forces and acquaintances.” “What is it? It has attracted so many people's attention, and even the Heavenly Court that has always been hiding in the dark has sent some people over?” Philip asked. Fennel said solemnly, “It’s said to be an object left by the ancient sages that can suppress the stargate. However, no one knows what it is. This is the rumor for now.” At this point, Fennel paused and said, “I suspect that someone is secretly manipulating something. Mystic City may have become a chessboard for a certain big figure who’s making a move right now.” Hiss! Hearing this, Phili
Cynthia dried her tears and said, “Why are you here?” Philip put his hands in his trouser pockets, looked at the moon in the night sky that rarely made an appearance, and said, “I was afraid you’d do something stupid.” Hearing this, Cynthia laughed through her tears and said, “I’m not that fragile. I just…” Cynthia did not complete her sentence. Philip suddenly said, “Cynthia, you should understand that I can't make any promises to you. Feelings are like that. I admit that I don’t hate you and even like you a bit.” Hearing this, Cynthia became a little excited. “But I can’t think about this right now. Maybe I’ll change my mind in three to five years. After all, as a man, loving someone is not the same as liking someone. Wynn is the love of my life. I won’t hurt her or make her sad. “If you’re willing, wait for me for three years. After three years, I’ll give you a reply and a status.” After Philip finished speaking, he looked at Cynthia seriously. Philip did not know
“What?!” Hearing the guard's words, Hogan was shocked and said with disbelief, “The grandmaster was fine a few days ago. How did this happen?” “Fourth Master, we don't know the specifics. The patriarch asked you to return to the Larson family quickly,” the guard said. Without delay, Hogan and Cynthia hurried back to Larson Manor. As soon as they entered the manor, Hogan and Cynthia sensed the unusually heavy atmosphere. In the main hall, Silva and the other two brothers as well as the other Larson family members were there. They seemed to be waiting for Hogan and his daughter. Seeing them return, Zayn was the first to chastise them. “Good for you, Hogan Larson! How dare you collude with outsiders and plot against the Larson family? You’re disloyal and unfilial! How dare you come back?” Nash followed suit. “Hogan, kneel down and plead your guilt in front of everyone!” Hogan’s face was cold, and an aura that had never appeared before surged from his body. He shouted ang
Finally, Hogan turned around, pointed at Silva who was sitting on the main seat, and shouted, “And you, the head of the Larson family, Silva Larson! You betrayed the Larson family’s rules, turned against your predecessors, colluded with outsiders, and dragged the Larson family down because of your wild ambitions! You even plotted to kill your relatives. You should be executed immediately!” Rumble! A blast of thunder exploded above Larson Manor! All the members of the Larson family were shocked, and their faces turned pale! Silva sat on the main seat, his face ashen and his fists clenched. He shouted angrily, “Enough! Hogan, do you know what you are talking about?” The angry shout resounded throughout the hall! Silva’s face was full of anger, and his eyes seemed to be blazing as he stared at Hogan! Hogan snorted coldly and shouted, “I respect you as the head of the family and my eldest brother, but your actions recently are despicable!” With that said, Hogan turned aroun
After getting rid of the crocodile, Philip jumped up and returned to the shore with Rabbit. Although he had been fighting in the water for a while, Philip was not wet at all—a stark contrast with Rabbit. “Philip, are your clothes waterproof? Maybe I should see if I can make my fur waterproof?” After he was back to safety, Rabbit started shooting his mouth off excitedly again. He never thought he could survive. Philip was expectant when he felt the sudden increase in his power. He dragged the crocodile ashore. He thought this creature was weird. It was not a monster beast and did not have a monster core. However, it was very powerful and could fight Philip with its body alone. The monster beasts he had seen in the past could spray fire or water, fly in the air, or burrow underground. In short, they had some abilities to a certain extent. However, the crocodile in front of him did not display any abilities. It was just like an ordinary crocodile in the zoo. Despite that, ev
When they arrived at the oasis, Philip found that it covered a large area. This place could be considered a large island that looked quite luxurious and extraordinary. “We can finally have a good rest.” Rabbit leaned against a big tree comfortably. He felt relaxed as soon as he entered the oasis, which was not so hot and had abundant water resources. “The environment is quite good, but I wonder if there’s any danger.” Philip looked around with satisfaction. Suddenly, an ugly monster rushed toward them, so fast that Rabbit could not react. Rabbit was very close to the water and was taken by the monster before he could react. Philip immediately gave chase. The monster bit Rabbit and plunged into the water. Philip reached out and grabbed the monster. He knew that Rabbit was useless in such cases. Rabbit would probably be dead if the weird monster took him away. “Philip, save me!” Rabbit spluttered in the water, bobbing up and down, feeling very scared. He regretted staying
“This may look very cruel, but it wouldn’t have happened if they hadn’t attacked us,” Rabbit said with a sigh. He knew that Philip would not have done this if the ants had not treated them as food. He knew Philip too well. He would avoid trouble as much as possible. Philip would not attack for no reason even if he had to take a detour. However, the ants’ killing intent was too strong. It was bad enough if Rabbit felt scared. He just wanted to cheer for Philip. “Philip, did you notice that this place is not a secret realm but more like a world?” Rabbit said doubtfully. At first, Rabbit thought that the stone man had teleported them to a terrible secret realm, but after some time, he felt a difference between this place and a secret realm. “Although we can find various natural environments in a secret realm, they're generally false and can't appear in front of us, but everything around us is real!” The monsters they usually encountered in a secret realm would attack their s
“Wait a minute. Do you think that the black energy is approaching us?” Moray stepped back in a panic and looked around in disbelief. Hearing that, everyone looked at their surroundings. Sure enough, the black energy was getting closer. Aslan estimated that it would take six hours for the black energy to trap everyone. Aslan was calm. All the people under Philip’s command did not find the black energy dangerous. Only the losers would find it dangerous. Now that Philip was trapped, it was useless for them to worry. Aslan took out some recliners from his space ring and asked everyone to wait quietly. “Now that we’re free, let’s prepare some food and drinks. Let's not get into trouble.” At Aslan’s order, everyone took action. They had nothing to worry about. The others stared at them in surprise and amazement. Now that danger was upon them, how could these people laugh and eat without worries? They did not take the stone man seriously at all. However, they could not do
“What the hell did you do? Give Philip back. Stop messing around!” Aslan threatened the stone man. Aslan knew that the stone man must have taken Philip to a dangerous place. Philip must have been taken into a barrier or an unknown and terrifying place. Anyway, the stone man must be up to no good! The stone man calmly ignored them. “I’m your only opponent. I don't know how many stone people there are in the outside world, but as far as I know, I’m the only stone man in this world. “Since Philip is that powerful, I’ll give him six hours. If he can leave my secret realm, I’ll let you go. If not, be prepared to die.” After saying that, the stone man laughed wickedly and vanished from the spot, leaving everyone looking at each other in bewilderment. No one knew where he had gone, and no one knew what was going on. The people of the major races summoned their people in a panic. No matter what, they had to find the way out. “Hurry up and find an exit. We can't put all our hope
“Let’s walk ahead. I believe this is an illusion created by the stone man to confuse us. As long as we stay calm, he can’t do anything to us,” Philip said calmly as if he knew what was going on. He and Rabbit walked forward and soon saw a huge oasis in front of them. Rabbit was delighted to see the oasis because that meant there was still hope for them. Although the desert environment was harsh, they should be able to bump into some indigenous people and figure out what was going on. “Philip, are my eyes playing tricks on me? I see an oasis ahead of us. This is great. In that case, we can find a way out!” Rabbit knew that Philip had been looking for a way out but to no avail. Something had to be preventing him from doing it. They might have to pass a test before they could leave. In that case, they had to figure out the secret. Philip glanced at the oasis in front of him and relaxed a little. At least, he could tell that it was not a mirage. They excitedly ran to the oasi
The black shadow was not bothered about revealing its identity because it liked being a stone man. “The stone people have strong minds and a firm resolve. They're never as disgusting and selfish as humans. It's a pity that we didn't have a chance to develop. I found a fragmented scroll that recorded some techniques for development. Among them is a technique most suitable for the stone people to become stronger through a sacrificial ritual.” The stone man seemed very earnest as he explained the details, but he was, in fact, using this time to solidify his body until he was finally complete. “Haha, everything is over once I get rid of you!” the stone man laughed. His figure shook, and clouds of black energy formed again. However, the black energy was only aimed at Philip. In his opinion, the others would die once he got rid of Philip. Philip was surrounded by black energy before he could react. In a split second, he could not see anything around him. Seeing this, Rabbit rushe
Before this, these people kept insulting Philip and wished they could tear him into pieces. They even thought it was unlucky to see him here. Surprisingly, events took a sudden turn, and Philip became their savior instead. “Enough with the crap.” Philip did not want to respond to their gratitude. He just wished they could get the fight over and done with so that they could leave. “By the way, I'm curious about something.” As the fight reached the boiling point, Philip turned to the black shadow curiously. The black shadow was taken aback by Philip’s sudden remark. “What are you curious about?” The black shadow wanted to buy some time. It was just a step away from forming a solid entity, which could improve its strength significantly. Philip would have to think twice about dealing with it by then. Thus, the black shadow was excited that Philip wanted to chat with it. “How did you make that mysterious old man convey the news?” According to most people, they found out about
The black shadow gained strength by devouring other people’s flesh and blood. Philip knew that he might be no match for the black shadow once it devoured everyone present. After going through all the trouble, it would not let all its efforts go to waste. Philip's appearance had ruined its plan. It would probably go crazy if it could not devour these people. “No one can stop me today. So what if you’re strong? I don't believe you can save everyone!” After saying this, the black energy rushed to the merfolk. The merfolk ran to Philip in a panic, hoping that Philip could protect them. “Lyle,” Philip said. Philip was exasperated by these stupid merfolk. Lyle rushed forward and attacked the black energy. Back then, Philip had given them sachets to ward off evil energy. Lyle had a sudden idea and hurled a sachet at the black shadow. It was just an experiment, but it worked. After sensing the powder in Philip's sachet, the black energy shrank back and stopped moving as if it h
